You ask me why my heart's so sad
And why the teardrops fill my eyes
A heart can't sing that's filled with pain
How can it laugh when it cries
I saw my dreams all fade and die
Like castles in the blue
Each dawn will bring more tears and pain
I've lost the only love I knew
Oh, life for me is use - less now
It seems so empty and blue
There's no more use to try a - gain
I fail in everything I do
It's hard to know you'll never have
The one you love so true
While the world's asleep, I'll lay and cry
I've lost the only love I knew
